In Part 3, we discuss how the individual can respond to challenges and suffering from the viewpoint of the soul. It may be said that what happens to us is the result of our own actions: our past karma. But that is both hard to take and even harder to prove (usually). More important is how we respond in the here and now. The "dice are loaded" because after accepting the inevitability of hardship and suffering as part of human life, it is suffering that is the soul's prod to pride to seek to solve the riddle of life.
